life is so fast. our true nature has a longer view of things. the child fresh from the universe has no concept of time, no need of hurry, only time stretching out before them like endless golden fields. that must be the way it is on the other side, endless golden fields, the streets of heaven are paved with gold. luckily the child that came is the child that leaves just with a lot more luggage. but that luggage is why we came in the first place, to gather the information here and return to the whole with our reports and achievments. krishna said that whatever we learn during our human incarnation we retain for future lives. i sure hope he was right. ive been reading heavily in the bible recently. well actually ive been reading all the extras that came with my highschool graduation bible. its a great one it has cross references and glossaries and lots of interesting history of the actual document. it  amazes me how blind and powerful faith can be. of course it is our own faith and not the document or ritual that sets us free from this cycle of dust, it is our only ability to accept the gift. if you believe it will be, but belief is a powerful fellow he needs intellect and humanity to keep him civil. sometimes belief gets tangled up with ego and ends up serving him instead, thats when men strap bombs to themselves in order to be right. it is the new babylon we are living in and all lands will eventually be infected. even here in my little corner the kingdom of ego is growing and the old culture dying out like forest that they cut to build upon. its sad but normal. of course it is our course.
